Jason Hodgson Recruitment Director

Throughout my career I have always been a people person. My ability to form strong interpersonal and business relationships has been key to my success in recruitment. I find reward through the development of others and helping them realise their own objectives and potential.When I’m not working, I enjoy plenty of walking with my two Siberian Huskies, in addition to a weekly yoga class which allows me to stay healthy. My favourite holiday destination has to be Florida, without a doubt!

Simon Glencross Director

My career started in the hospitality industry at the age of 16 here in Carlisle. I worked through all departments until becoming Front of House Manager. My career took me to London where I worked for a software development company, initially supporting hospitality software, but soon moved to development using both my hospitality experience and software support to help develop property management systems.Having lived in London for a little over 6 years, I made the decision to return to Carlisle. I enjoy walking in my spare time, keeping up to date with current affairs and travelling overseas.

Emma Lindsay Recruitment Manager

I love that no two days are the same at NXT, and I enjoy the fast pace and urgency that comes with working with people and businesses. I enjoy representing NXT and I jump at any opportunity to get out of the office, be it to meet with clients, attend exhibitions and events, or to support local schools and charities with projects.My energy and enthusiasm is regularly commented on and I believe strongly in treating people how you want to be treated. Helping people to secure career paths and seeing businesses grow because of the work we have done is what motivates me. I pour my heart and soul into everything I do and never take the easy option!I’m passionate about travelling, good food (and wine) and muddy walks with my bulldog in The Lake District at every opportunity I get.

Ben Foster Resource Consultant

Having joined the company to enable me to gain new skills and develop my existing ones, I bring with me 6 years of experience from inside the banking sector, using my strong interview skills to help identify the best people for the roles for which we are recruiting. Customer service has always been a huge part of my working life, which has come to be even more useful within this role. I like to think outside the box to help identify as many transferable skills as possible during candidate meetings, in order to maximise the opportunities open to people. I am passionate about providing a unique service and demonstrate my genuine interest in people and their goals. I am interested in anything relating to computers, politics and economics. In my spare time I enjoy cycling, skiing and socialising.

James Mawson Recruitment Consultant

Throughout the years I have worked in many jobs such as a Barista, Waiter and a Market Stall Trader starting at the age of 12, selling fruit and vegetables with my mum’s friend. I have always taken pride in my communication skills and have always used them to my advantage whilst improving them to reach my full potential. I have always enjoyed working with people and being surrounded by people but also the possibility of a challenge intrigues me and drives me to succeed.

I am passionate in helping people to succeed and being there for them whilst getting the best out of themselves. I am interested in music, traveling and socialising with my friends. In my spare time, it is very rare you will find me lounging about on the sofa as I’m always somewhere keeping myself occupied.
